[Advances in serological non-invasive diagnosis for metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease].

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease is a chronic liver condition associated with metabolic abnormalities characterized by hepatic steatosis that can progress to metabolic-related steatohepatitis, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and even hepatocellular carcinoma. Currently, a liver biopsy is still the gold standard for diagnosis but due to its invasiveness and risk of complications, the development of serological diagnostic indicators to achieve non-invasive diagnosis has been a hot research topic in recent years. Herein, well-researched serological non-invasive diagnostic indicators present now for fatty livers are reviewed.
